Month: June 2008

I think I’ve been a Scarlet lime subscriber for 6 months or something now. Know what? LOVE IT!!! Kits always have unusual things I wouldn’t have access to, plus Christy is runs things beautifully. Here’s a page I made with their May kit:

LOVE this kit! And guess what? When I told Christy about my “kits” class over at Big Picture (last day to sign up, by the way!!!) you know what she did? She sent me not 1, but TWO different scarlet lime kits to give away. How awesome is that??? I know whoever (in the bps kit class) wins them will LOVE them like I do.

In the meantime, I’ll patiently wait for my June subscription to arrive. SO yummy looking!!

hello fellow cupcake fanatics. I was just on the couch cruising the new Williams Sonoma catalog, and lookie what I found.

yep. a cupcake shaped cake pan. Will I buy it? NO. I have 4 cake pans I’ve yet to use… so I’m not allowed. It’s ok- I don’t see it working out well for us… but I love it. and I tore that page out of the catalog and hung on my wall. SO YUM! I think I’ll be having sweet dreams tonight…

I have to share this. If you went over to the big picture blog you saw my pic at my desk taken last week.

Well, in the interest of full disclosure (and harsh reality) this is what you’d more likely see:

no make up. no cute top. hair pulled back. no jewelry. This is actually the photo I took first- then thought… sheesh. If this is going to be up on the BPS blog I’d better pretty up a bit! But then I thought- this cracks me up so I think I’ll share the ‘reality’ on my blog. However- that really is exactly how my desk looks most days.

Back to my batcave (as pictured above)

I don’t even know where to start. First off, I got a nasty case of food poisoning. Not the flu- it was food poisoning and yes my gut is sure. Still not eating much outside the basic bread group… but my massive headache is gone and I’m hydrated. I can promise you that I was REALLY sick, because anyone who knows me will tell you that I’d do just about anything befor volunteering to go in for an IV. The fact that I was WANTING the IV of fluids really freaked me out. My fear of needles trumps all but severe health… so yeah. I was in a bad way.

Ok- so last 3 or 4 days or something have been a blur. On couch. in bed. sitting. sleeping. sipping clear fluids SLOWLY and eating a cracker every 30min or so. Yesterday my brain started waking back up, but today it’s WIDE awake and wanting to play. To prevent such madness I’ve chained myself + juice + laptop to sofa for e-mail catch up. Keeps body still but brain busy. good plan.

I wish I could tell you I have fabulous blog posts just waiting… but I don’t. I did read the most awesome, gut busting book yesterday- more on that another time. Gotta give her a full post. In the meantime- if you check out the B.P.S. Blog they did a teacher feature on me. http://bigpicturescrapbooking.typepad.com/scrap_big/2008/06/teacher-feature.html

If you’re already in the kit class- I hope you’re having FUN!! I have so many cool things to reveal and prizes to give… can’t wait! 🙂
